To people looking for an independent postdoc fellowship, apply for a Rose fellowship at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology by Oct 4! I've been on it for 2 yrs and I 💕 it. And no, you don't have to be a birder🙃. Happy to answer questions! Cornell Lab birds.cornell.edu/home/rose-post…

Migration is looking massive this weekend, with 316 to 400+ MILLION migrating birds on the wing each night, according to Team BirdCast. Should be great birding—also a good time to turn off nonessential lights to avoid disorienting birds. bit.ly/LightsOutForBi… #LightsOutTexas

Had a conversation with some NSF PIs recently and was reminded that it’s hard for some folks to reach out to NSF Program Officers (POs). I wish I had one weird trick to make it easier but I don’t. Instead, I’ll try to provide a few thoughts that will hopefully help.

Did you know that over 32 million migrating birds will pass over Illinois tonight? Turn your lights off and let’s help the birds on their way.

MIGRATION ALERT. We keep saying fall migration is peaking, and it keeps getting bigger! Estimate for no. of birds migrating over U.S. creeps past 600 MILLION this weekend! Learn more at BirdCast: bit.ly/2yPr7sI Thx Team BirdCast!

Wow! Team BirdCast projects HALF A BILLION BIRDS will be in the air tonight as they migrate south. Could be great birding for Saturday's #OctoberBigDay! Also great time to turn out nonessential lighting and check windows for bird safety: birdcast.info/science-to-act… #LightsOutTexas

I'd like to introduce pykanto, a new Python library that could be helpful for researchers who work with large animal vocalization datasets recorded in the field. You can read the preprint here: arxiv.org/pdf/2302.10340… And here's a thread for more information 👇🧵

Nice to see this out today, “Naive songbirds show seasonally appropriate spring orientation in the laboratory despite having never completed first migration”. Perhaps worth a read for those interested in #migratory #inheritance and #philopatry in birds! 👀 royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rs…

Actual email exchange I just had.

I am thrilled to present a new method to reconstruct the full migratory trajectory of birds from pressure sensors and wind data! 🦅🐦🌍 Check it out: 🔗 doi.org/10.1111/2041-2… #science #birdmigration #birdwatching #ornithology

In most of the "double-blind" reviews I've done, I find the authors' names in one place or another, like in the supplementary material or response-to-reviewers letter. Not saying this is done on purpose, but "accidentally" revealing oneself would give some people an advantage.

Attention #birdwatching folks, #AnimalRights. Please join our #LightsOutNYC rally on Broadway for this important #BirdSafety bill by Council Member Francisco Moya. Hear scientists, bird experts, & New York City Council members. Bring homemade signs! DM any questions. Thank you

Migration Alert!! 400 million birds will be migrating tonight—a good time to turn off nonessential outdoor lighting and to treat reflective windows to keep birds safe. Learn more at birdcast.info/science-to-act… #LightsOut #LightsOutAlert
